We own a business together. Lately he's been educating me on reality. I'll list some of his truths.

- Sandyhook did not happen. It's a ploy to confiscate guns.
- Boston bombing never happened. Same ploy.
- There's a cabal of ultra zillionaires planning on depopulating earth to only 500,000,000.
- Ben Bernake is our biggest enemy.
- The twin towers were leveled by a secret weapon that was designed by the Mossad.
- Getting back to the gold standard is paramount.

Now I know this sound like garden variety teahadists lunacy. But I need to maintain this partnership and
he's pressuring me to take time to learn these facts. He really doesn't know I'm a progressive. He thinks
I'm a hippy with no real convictions because I don't reveal my leanings to him, he'd explode.

What to do? I've ended other relationships due to this, but this one would not be good for me financially.

He sounds more like an Alex Jones fan than a Tea Party member. Then Olive 'Oil' Love probably thinks anyone who isn't a racist baby killing liberal is a tea party member.

6. Your current situation is not going to be good for you psychologically

Also I'm not entirely sure that #3 and #4 on your list aren't at least withing shouting distance of the truth.

As for the gold standard, there's roughly ten billion ounces of gold on the entire planet and the average net worth of six billion Earthlings is $20,372.02.

20,000 * 6,000,000,000 = 1.2e+14

Divide 1.2e+14 by 10 billion and you get $12,000 an ounce for gold if the world is to go to the gold standard. Is that a reasonable figure for something that really doesn't have a great deal of intrinsic value as an industrial metal (silver is a lot more useful as a metal).
